I think I went a bit overboard with the weathering, as he looks noticeably (to me) dirtier than the Venerable Dreadnought.  More in the spoiler:

 

 

 

Side by side of the two painted dreads:

And a before/after of the dread (I bought him circa 1996, and he had two paintjobs - Ultramarines and then a Black job for a custom, unnamed chapter (I didn't settle on the Tormentors until 1999-2000), then a strip and a paint in the current Tormentors colors:

A big thank you to everyone that organized and participated in this - you all motivated me to make use of my downtime from work this past month to finally take a serious shot at painting an army that has existed in my head for an obnoxiously long time.

 

Here is everything that i've painted as part of this challenge, 745 points in all:

I have *got* to stop leaving this sort of stuff til the eleventh hour. Not going to make it, I'm afraid. Run dry on black paint, and no chance to get replacements in time.

[Marshal Mattias]

Aaaand done. Can I go to bed now?

Yes, that's right, I magnetised the head just so he can shoot stuff without looking when he wants to show-off :P

[Dosjetka]

+ Event end. +

[High Marshal Bohemond]

Only finished half my vow...sorry RL got in the way

[paulJam]

+ Event end. +

a slightly belated thank you for organizing this dos.

the events on this board definitely provide me with some (albeit small) motivation to chip away at my own army.

far nicer however is seeing fresh eye-candy from the other more talented members.

so thanks

@ GastosGhor: my compliments on such a lovely fists force, mate! I really like how you've integrated black as a seccond primary colour - as opposed to a secondary. It looks really great!

@ Dosjetka: Thanks again for providing support for our favourite Legion and Chapter!

Has this event concluded? Wasn't sure if the results had been posted elsewhere and I missed it but the steps do say BE PATIENT haha.
